Dear Stuart Zagato and Greig AlfistiSA,
The Photos Greig showed remind me of the first time (of 4 lightweights I've worked on) I noticed that the aluminum channel was installed, as Greig's photo of the red SVA shows, with the 'big lip' inside rather than outside as one would expect. Odd, but that is the only way it will work! I have seen other SVConfortovoles without frames, thank you Dan davisfamily is one more, but the photos of your car with frames Greig are the best so far. Note the 'big lip' is outside on the roll-up window car!
Dear David cstlhn, please enjoy your Sprint! It's a wonderful motorcar. It doesn't need to pretend that it's a Ferrari. It's different (and rewards a skilled driver better). It's your choice, but I'd stop at making it an 'abnormale' 1400. And safety equiptment for race track use. It is too easy to get carried away with hop-up improvements.
Dear Patrick Hung, how did Lionel Velez's motorcar SVConfortovole 1493E*06611 escape your list? Did you notice the lists compiled by iicarjohn ? Hope to see some of you on New Years Day for the Anti-Football run!

Cheers, Laurence of Berkeley
